On the rio (a small Venetian canal) di San Lio, between the Ponte del Teatro and Campo Santa Marina, this is one of the best-preserved late-Gothic façades in Venice: a quadrifora with the coat of arms and the marble heads of the Bragadin family and a rusticated portal signed by Michele Sanmicheli in 1542, a Renaissance insert deliberately contrasting with the Gothic grace of the windows.
